A Day at the Office
Well what a day we had yesterday! It started with an older gentleman who is battling cancer coming in for on "ion cleanse". For those of you who don't know what that is. You put your feet in this little bath of water and there is an ion machine put in the water that draws the toxins out of the body. Your feet have the largest pores in your body and you get rid of lots of stuff that is building up in your body. Because this man has had a lot of chemo treatments, he wanted to get rid of "side effects of the chemicals" put into his body. He also wanted to have his blood analyzed to see how he was progressing. About 20 minutes into all this, he became unresponsive to questions. We immediately stopped his ion and dryed his feet. His wife said this has happened before. She started to pray commanding the spirit of death to leave and calling on the name of Jesus to touch her husband. We also prayed. We asked if we should call an ambulance. We did. As the ambulance was dispatched and we talked to the switchboard and prayer was going up, this man started to come around and slowly spoke "Jesus help". He became more and more alert. His pulse had become very weak. By the time the paramedics arrived, he was doing much better. He became very emotional and just wept. I felt so bad for him. He was embarrassed and felt he was causing all kinds of problems. I'm not exactly sure what happened but I do know he was unresponsive and then after prayer, responded and was able to walk out of the office. We really had thought he was going to die in front of us.
Then Gizmo Williams came in with a client of his to check out what we did. He was impressed. He is a personal trainer now and his client had lost 40 lb since following recommendations to improve her health. Now that was kind of cool.
Another elderly lady came in and wanted a miracle but she didn't want to change anything! Now isn't that childish! She didn't want to drink water, she didn't want to eat brown rice, she didn't want to pay the price for supplements to help her either. I'm thinking ... why did you come here?
So in the course of day...we had quite the spectrum of patients. There have been so many things going through my mind ... How often do I simply have to say "Help me God". How many times do I have to search to check if this is for real? How many times am I so stubborn that I want things my way or forget it. How many times do I want the results but don't want to go through the process of changing to get to the results. Often the results are there for the taking if I with God's help make proper choices.
That was yesterday's lesson. I have another lesson I learned from Tuesday but haven't had a chance to post yet.
